The standout in the retrospective, the 2013 Pinot Noir Machado has that rare mix of opulence, power, structure, and balance that defines great wines. Beautiful blackcurrant fruits as well as notes of ground herbs, flowers, black tea, and forest floor all jump from the glass, and it’s just as good on the palate, with flawless balance, no hard edges, and a great finish. It’s a brilliant wine, from a brilliant vintage, from a brilliant winemaker. Drink it any time over the coming decade.
